Butterlield. who bears the reputation Of
being one Of the most careful and relia-

sprained his right foot and ankle, and
reopened an old wound upon his left

dragged backward by the stage coach,

the stage were found among the wreck

A reader of the Philadelphia News,
contributes the following extract from
a composition Of a little African girl,
who was a wild savage afew years ago,
hut is now in the o~rphahage of Cape
Palmas:
HISTORY, GEOGRAPHY, AN19THE EARTH.
DO YOU know what history is? His
tory, as You know, teaches Us what is
to happen in the past event.
Geography shows us where the thing
has happened at. History tells us
where Adam and Eve were created,
and geography shows Us where the
garden Of Eden is, which continent,
and which division. History tells, us :
that Adam was the first man that was
created. and while he was sleeping
God took Il one of his ribs and made
Eve.
After awhile Eve went to walk
among the trees OF the garden. Con-
versation took place between her and
the devil. The devil told her to eat
some kind Of fruit which God had told
her and Adam not to eat. She took it
and ate it, and also took some for her
husband. When Adam saw it he did
not TAKE time to ask Eve where she got
it from.
History, geography, and the earth
just do 10 20. together. One tells US
about that, one about this, etc. His
tories are interesting to read. indeed
they are. 1t tells Il, something about
the whale. The whale is the largest
animal in the sea, Whale is spoken Of
in the bible. When God had sent

A WORLD OF SEEMING

It is a world of SEEMING:
The changeless moon seems changing ever
The sun sets daily, but sets never.
So near the stars and yet SO far;
So small they seem, so large they are!
It is world of seeming
And SO it seems that she is dead,
Yet so seems only; for, instead,
Her life is just begun: and this
Is but an empty chrysalis;
While she, unseen to mortal eyes,
Now wins her way in brighter skies
Beyond this world of seeming.

Sadly Punched for Funds

WASHINGTON, March The Signal
Service is likely to be sadly pinched by
the failure of the general deficiency
appropriation bill. The most serious
consequences of the failure of the bill
perhaps will be the discontinuance of
storm warnings, cold waves and so
forth. At a number of important
points, owing to the failure OF the item
appropriating $4,000 for telegraphing
and reporting these warnings, so
nearly exhausted is the sum now avail
able for this purpose, that heavy cut

1t is the duty of every person who
has used BOSchee's German Syrup to let
It's wonderful qualities be known to
their friends in curing Consumption,
severe Coughs, Group, Asthma, Pneu-
monia, and in fact, all throat and lung
diseases. No person can use it without
immediate relief. Three doses will
relieve any case, and we consider it the
dutv of all Druggists to. recommend it
to the poor, dying consumptive, at least
to try one bottle, as $4,000 dozen bottles
were sold last year, and no one case
where it failed was reported. Such a
medicine as the German Syrup cannot be
too widely known. Ask your druggist
about it. Sample bottles to try, sold at
10 cents. Regular size, 70 cents. Sold
by all Druggists and Dealers, in the
United States and Canada.

taken from the jail by an immense
crowd of enraged citizens, to-day, and
hanged from the trestle on the railroad

fight in his cell against the crowd, being
armed with a broomstick, which he
welded with effect, but was finally
overpowered. He died game, refusing
to make any declaration. His victim
was Vic Loggins, prominent merchant
of Winona, whom he killed on the eve
